Ponyboy and Johnny walked home, Johnny's parents were fighting again. So they went to the lot, they talked and then fell asleep.

"Pony wake up" Johnny said.

"What time is it" Ponyboy said.

"I don't know I fell asleep too, you better get home alright, I'm gonna stay all night here I don't care anyway".

"Alright if you get cold come on over to my house".

"Alright" Johnny said.

"What is Darry gonna say" Ponyboy said worried. Ponyboy ran home and then opened his door. Darry stood up and yelled "where have you been, do you know what time it is… it's 2:00 in the morning". Soda said "Hey pony where've you been". "I fell asleep in the lot" Pony said. "You what" Darry said. "I was talken to Johnny and I fell asleep in the lot, I don't know" "I don't know that's all I here from you". "Oh come on Darry…" said Soda. Darry yelled at Soda before Soda could finish, "Stop it. I'm sick and tried of you sticking up for him". Ponyboy yelled "don't you yell at him" Darry hit Pony, Ponyboy ran out, "Darry yelled "Ponyboy I didn't mean too".

Ponyboy went to go get Johnny and said "come on Johnny we're running away".

They started running then they stopped. Pony said "Hey Johnny you smoke man I'm scared".

"Don't be scared man your scaring me, what happen" Johnny said.

"Darry hit me", "I think I like it better when the old mans hitting me" Johnny said. Ponyboy said crying a little " Come on man lets go to the park maybe by then I'll cool down". They were walking and talking in the park. Johnny said "Hey Pony ain't ya bout to freeze to death", "No". they climbed the monkey bars in the park. "Hey Pony you got a light", "Ya Johnny". Then Holly walked over to them. "Oh no look what's coming", Johnny suddenly said "Holly run… run". Holly started to run. The car parked right on the grass, 5 socs got out of the car.

"Should we make a ran for it" said Johnny.

Pony said "No stay clam" Ponyboy paused "there drunk".

"Danny said "Well well look who it is aren't these the Greasers that wanted to rumble". Pony and Johnny hop down the monkey bars. "You better watch it you are out of your territory" Johnny said. "No pal you better watch it" said Randy.

Danny said "Do you know what a greaser is… white trash with long greasy hair". Then Danny poured beer on Ponyboy. Ponyboy said "You know what soc is", "what" Danny asked. "White trash with weird patterns and stripes", then Ponyboy spit on them. Then Pony and Johnny stared to run, "get em" the socs yelled.

A soc kicked and pushed Johnny to the ground, the soc said "stay down pal" then run off with the other socs. The socs twisted Ponyboy's arm, then putting it behind his back, and forcing Pony's head in the fountain. Holly ran back to Pony and Johnny then yelled "Johnny… Ponyboy". Danny ran over to her, Holly started to struggle. Danny fell over, Holly ran away. Randy and the 3 socs ran off and Ponyboy was lying on the ground not dead asleep. Johnny sat there next to Ponyboy scared and shaking...
